Chapter 617 – [Cultural Festival]

After a good meal, drink coffee. Asterope also likes coffee, so he drank it well.

Of course, since it’s hot, I drink Ah with ice. It’s somehow good to drink a coffee that feels like it’s gradually faded by the melting ice of cool coffee. Is it just happiness for no reason?

“I ate well. Are you going to do this during the cultural festival?”

“Well, that’s right. But this time, because Asterope-sama was there, no seafood or meat was included.”

There was green onion, so I made green onion, but neither seafood nor eggs were included. Of course, when green onion is cooked, it tastes sweet on its own, but it is delicious with garnish.

In addition, there are also mung bean pancakes and bindaetteok. Mixed with minced meat and mung bean……. To be honest, the crispy cooked mung bean pancakes are about the same as potato pancakes.

“Everything was good, but I liked the sauce better. Is this the one I made last time?”

“I used a little trick, but after a few years of soaking, it tastes like this”

“Umm…Just like tofu, can you tell me how to make this too?”

“I’ll tell you more later.”

However, unlike tofu, fermented soy sauce is a waste of time and materials if made incorrectly. Besides, this is a fermented food. Even if the fermentation is just one end off, it will become rotten, so you had to be careful when making it.

And it may not taste like it.

This is because the soybean paste and soy sauce I’m making now are made using seed soybean paste and seed soy sauce from Horizon. So it tastes like the one I made at Horizon.

Doesn’t the soy sauce that beginners make taste like the soy sauce I’ve made for thousands of years?

“I’ll bring you soybean paste and soybean paste when you go to Daesamrim later. If you use them, they’ll taste just like the one I made.”

“Ah, if it’s soy sauce, is that the one you saw last time?”

“Yes, that’s what I said it doesn’t taste like.”

I don’t know about soybean paste, but soy sauce is a brown, slightly transparent stone that is formed when soy sauce is soaked.

When soy sauce is soaked for a long time, precipitates are formed, and the crystals are called seed soy sauce. For your information, this is not something that is produced by soaking soy sauce for 1 or 2 years.

Even if you can’t do it for decades, what you need to soak for that much is the seed soy sauce.

Moreover, the soy sauce I used this time is a large crystal the size of two fists put together. Even if it weighs only 1 or 2 kilos, it’s enough.

“Long ago, when you weren’t there, Mr. Phantom came and bought some soy sauce.”

“Oh, did you? How much did you get?”

“With that money, I remodeled the Horizon kitchen and brought in some new seeds.”

“Even if you paid for it at a friend’s price, you must have received quite a lot.”

That’s because Phantom herself spent her adolescence in Korea, so she’s familiar with kimchi and soybean paste. He often interacts with me about cooking like this.

Of course, money transactions are definitely done. The closer you are, the more you have to make such a deal so that it doesn’t fall apart.

“Is it that expensive?”

“Hmmm… Soy Sauce is probably older than Asterope.”

“Oh my gosh…….!!!!!”

It’s not gura The only time I soaked it was thousands of years. Because it is Japanese style, even if it is soaked relatively later, the period is over a thousand years.

No, how do ingredients that are a thousand years old remain? You may ask, but honey can be preserved for thousands of years if stored properly. Even if it’s not that, if you go to a famous soy sauce shop, you’ll be able to see hundreds of years of soy sauce.

At least, I added my technology to Horizon, which can be preserved better than those places and controlled through optimal environments and machines, but it was rather natural that soy sauce that was over a thousand years old came out.

“Can I give you something precious like that?”

“Precious things are as valuable as they are precious, so they have meaning. Precious things that are not used have no value.”

I don’t know if it’s an art piece, but it’s worse than no expensive things that I don’t intend to use.

If you make something like a golden toilet and don’t use it, it’s just worth the price of gold. Decoration? No matter how gold, what kind of asshole decorates the toilet?

“Besides, if you take it, other elves won’t eat it like tofu. Don’t worry and take it.”

“Well……”

Asterope looked at me with strange eyes.

The moment he saw the emotion in his gaze, Shion’s eyes narrowed. Oh, this sucked

“I feel really fortunate to have met Your Highness.”

“Uh, um… Is that so?”

“Why don’t you two go on a date at all?”

“Aaaaa”

“Then shall we go on a date next time?”

“Here’s a careless elf…!!!!”

After dinner and tea time, Asterope prepared to return to her dormitory.

It’s not that she doesn’t have anything to do on this side, but on the contrary, it’s because she also has something to do.

The Department of Fantasy Research is important in its own way because it conducts activities such as exhibiting self-fantasy and presenting research results during the cultural festival. This is because if you do well, you can enter a research institute in any country and receive research support.

As for Asterope, she will eventually return to the Great Forest, but it’s a great experience. It’s a good look to see her trying.

“Then I’ll be back for dinner!!!”

“Are you coming over for dinner too?!”

“Tasty things are important!”

Let Asterope go back after committing her bout and leaving. Shion and I brewed another cup of coffee and drank it.

“I don’t know if he’s really ignorant or innocent.”

“Isn’t it both?”

“Both are worse.”

“What am I!!!!”

“I didn’t say your name!!!”

While drinking a cup of coffee again, I talk with Xion alone. I feel like I’m a bit upset, so I need to let go of my anger.

“Would you like to go on a date at the cultural festival when you have free time?”

“There are many people to date other than me, so please adjust your schedule first.”

“It’s okay no matter who you are with because you are my top priority.”

“Hmm”

Oh, the sprain has loosened up a bit.

Shion drank her coffee with her relaxed face. I base my dating course on what I hear from others.

First of all, watch the self-fantasy demonstration of the fantasy research department……. Shall we eat somewhere else and watch the fantasy department’s tournament?

I don’t know if it will be time. If not, it might be better to cut down on what I do in the middle and then go back.

Ah, come to think of it, the cultural festival is not held for a day or two. Time will be fine

“Then I’ll see you”

“It wouldn’t be bad to look around, right?”

“It feels like being at an amusement park, so it must be quite fun.”

“It’s an amusement park. I have vivid memories of being there in my previous life. I was having fun at that time, but a strange guy came out and I was in a bad mood.”

Sometimes, when I talk to Xion and talk about the old days, it reminds me of memories, so it’s nice.

The bastard who made you feel bad will eventually end up in ruin, so you may not know it at the time, but when you talk about it later, the remaining emotions are exhilarating. That is, cider only.

Now that I think about it, I think I did a good job with the empress, which was the biggest thing I’ve ever done in this life. It’s unfortunate that my mother passed away in this lifetime, but that’s a separate issue.

“Amusement parks are usually good to go with the kids.”

“……Do you want to have a child?”

“I loved all of your children, but you can’t lie about blood.”

“That’s right… I don’t mean to not have it at all.”

It’s just that what I do, whether it’s as the Great Demon King or as a minion of the Absolute of Destiny, is unstable and dangerous, so I’m taking my time.

Because if Shion gives birth to a child, that child will at least think of it on the same level as Shion.

I’m still having a hard time keeping one. But with two people, that was beyond my level.

As for the conclusion… At least not yet.

“But the most frightening thing is that a kid who looks like you and has a hair that looks like me comes out.”

“Are you born that way? And talent isn’t that important.”

“It’s true”

“But if I have a personal wish, I would like to see a child with a hair and appearance that resembles me and a body that resembles you.”

“What kind of whole thing is that again? Aren’t you expecting something too big?”

“Parents always want their children to be better than they are.”

“Then I can’t help it. Hmm…… I’ll do my best.”

Transcendent traits are inherited. If the parent is a transcendental person, there is a high probability that the child will be born with talents and qualities that exceed that of ordinary people, even if they do not reach the transcendental level.

Gray, born as a child of an absolute and an absolute, was born human, but was so talented that he became the first to become an absolute. To that extent, having a transcendental person as a parent is no different from a chaebol or a golden spoon.

But that’s not absolute.

No one is strong from birth. It is natural that even transcendental species are much weaker than other adults immediately after birth.

The same goes for the transcendental children. If you’re strong from birth, that’s honestly unfair.

What matters is effort. Learning and mastering something, and having the will to overcome crises and trials was the way to become strong.

“But can’t I really do something like pregnancy? Later, when I become a woman, I’ll just do that.”

“I’m going to do it!!!!”

“It was obvious that the first delivery would be difficult, but I insisted on it…”

If I give birth, I have a lot of experience and I’m used to it, so I can give birth in 30 minutes after the amniotic fluid bursts.

However, it is very difficult to give birth to Shion, who has such a body as well as a first childbirth, unless it is a caesarean section. Shion, who is not used to pain, then…Should I ask for a doctor with good skills?

“But the most important thing is education. You can’t just raise them in Horizon, can you?”

“Socialization is important. I don’t intend to raise a child in a well.”

Wouldn’t it be strange if the Great Demon King, who governs society, did not raise his children in society?

If a child grows up without meeting anyone, he or she will either become a gullible child with a lack of social experience or, conversely, will have a personality that is difficult to accept outsiders. As much as he is a precious child, he is not raised that way.

“I’m thinking of finding a Korean that’s suitable and opening a restaurant there and growing it. I don’t know when that will happen, but anyway.”

“Why Earth?”

“Because Korea is the most passable and the base of my existence there. Seeing the good and the bad, you have to grow up so you can have your own opinions clearly.”

Looking too good is not good, looking too bad is not good.

You have to establish your own subjectivity at the midpoint and use that as a standard. So I decided to raise my child in Korea.

As a reincarnated person, even though the boundaries between men and women have become blurred, I am closer to the male side, and even though my origin has become blurred, I am a natural Korean who cooks kimchi stew without side dishes.

A person’s heart will return to their hometown someday, and it was the same with King of Cooking, Biryong!!!!

Even if it’s not the same, what’s wrong with raising a child in the place where I was born?

“Of course, as a transcendental child, I’m going to give you some education. Um… Teach me some martial arts and things like that. Sometimes you teach me about science as well.”

“It’s kind of fun because I’m planning a child.”

“Right?”

“But the most important thing is practice, isn’t it?”

“I’m sorry for the delay, but I’ll do it later.”

The day will come when I will have a child with Shion someday.

Me, who will continue to be reincarnated, and Zion, who will live forever. Because she is that kind of me and her, her chance will come anytime.

If that time comes, throw maternity leave in the face of the Absolute of Destiny and come back. Because if you think about maps, you won’t touch them while you’re raising children.

“The good thing is that among the people who are hostile to me, there is no one who can harm you or the child. No, even if there is, one person will fight against me.”

“I owe a lot to Choi Gil-hyun.”

“If something happens to me, go to him?”

“What ominous things are you saying?”

“You should have insurance.”

Apart from my work, Gilhyun Choi is a great hero. If he is innocent, he will protect him with his life. No matter how political the problem is at stakehehelps without calculating gains and losses.

In a way, he is the exact opposite of the emperor. The emperor throws away his humanity and calculates gains and losses, but Choi Gil-hyun has more correct humanity than anyone else and does not calculate gains and losses.

“But do you prefer daughters or sons?”

“I am a daughter”

“Oh, I like my daughter too.”

“There is consensus there.”

What? Then, isn’t my daughter-in-law bringing her son-in-law?

………Until you knock me down, there’s no way innoooooum!!!!!!
